Abstract

The transition of university libraries from conventional services to digital services requires innovation to meet the needs of the digital generation of students. This study aims to analyze the forms of innovation employed by librarians in developing digital services at the UPA Library of Bengkulu University and to identify the barriers encountered in this innovation process. The novelty of this study lies in its focus on the role of librarians as the primary agents of innovation in the development of digital services and the readiness to implement Artificial Intelligence (AI) in university libraries. The research framework encompasses librarian innovation, technology utilization, and information management. This study employs a descriptive qualitative method. The results of the study indicate that librarian innovation is realized through the implementation of SLiMS 9 Bulian as a service automation system that supports collection management. The development of an institutional repository, e-book services, and e-clippings has expanded students’ access to learning information sources. Self-service membership features and the development of the library website have improved ease of access. Meanwhile, the QR Tree and Visitor QR innovations offer more interactive and modern services, reinforced through active promotion via the website and social media. Innovations at the Bengkulu University Library have proven capable of improving service efficiency, expanding access to information, and encouraging user independence in utilizing library information resources. However, the development of digital services still faces various obstacles, such as budget constraints, suboptimal technological infrastructure, unstable internet connectivity, and librarians’ technological competencies. These findings indicate that although the library has begun planning the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI), its implementation has not yet been optimal.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze how Semarang Zoo employs social innovation strategies to build public awareness of wildlife conservation through public education programs. Using a qualitative descriptive approach with a case study method, data were collected through observation, interviews, documentation, and literature review involving Semarang Zoo management, educators, and visitors. The findings reveal that Semarang Zoo develops conservation education through innovative outreach programs, including Zoo to School, Zoo to Mall, Car Free Day education campaigns, animal shows, and interactive learning activities. These initiatives extend conservation education beyond the zoo environment and create opportunities for direct public engagement with wildlife conservation issues. From a social innovation perspective, the study demonstrates how conservation education can be delivered through collaborative, participatory, and experiential approaches that respond to the challenge of limited public conservation literacy. The findings also indicate several constraints, including uneven visitor engagement and challenges in sustaining public participation over time. This study contributes to the social innovation literature by illustrating how educational communication strategies can function as socially innovative mechanisms for expanding conservation learning in community settings. Rather than confirming long-term behavioral change, the findings suggest that such programs have the potential to strengthen public awareness and engagement with conservation issues, highlighting the need for further research on their long-term impacts.

Abstract

Gender inequality and violence against women and children are interconnected social problems shaped by unequal power relations, gender norms, silence, and limited awareness of protection mechanisms. This study examined how the experiences of women social activists and child protection stakeholders in Sukabumi, West Java, could inform gender-sensitive Social Studies education for active bystander and violence-prevention awareness among Madrasah Tsanawiyah (MTs) students. Using a two-phase qualitative design, Phase I applied critical ethnography with five women social activists and child protection stakeholders, complemented by interviews with three Social Studies teachers. Phase II used Emancipatory Action Research through a three-session classroom intervention with 92 Grade VIII and IX students from four MTs in Sukabumi City and Regency. Data were collected through interviews, pre- and post-intervention questionnaires, scenario-based reflections, student advocacy products, and classroom documentation, and were analyzed through thematic coding, qualitative pre-post comparison, and triangulation. Findings showed that gender inequality was understood through patriarchal expectations, normalized harmful behavior, underreporting, vulnerability, and limited knowledge of safe reporting pathways. After the intervention, students demonstrated more specific recognition of violence, stronger rejection of gender stereotypes, and more structured explanations of safe bystander responses. The study concludes that locally grounded, gender-sensitive Social Studies education can connect critical understanding of inequality with child protection, violence prevention, and safe bystander responsibility.

Abstract

Circulation services are the core of library services, involving direct interaction between librarians and users. The quality of communication significantly influences the effectiveness of these services. This study examines the social skills of circulation service librarians at the UIN Fatmawati Sukarno Bengkulu Library, focusing on nonverbal and verbal dimensions. A qualitative case study approach was used to understand the social skills of librarians in circulation services. Informants were selected through purposive sampling, including the head of user services, circulation librarians, and active users. Data were collected through observation, in depth interviews, and literature review, then analyzed using data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions based on Cronin and Martin’s social skills theory. The findings indicate that nonverbal social skills are reflected through professional appearance, body orientation, appropriate interpersonal distance, eye contact, and empathetic facial expressions. Verbal skills are demonstrated through clear information delivery, appropriate articulation and intonation, adaptive speaking pace, and responsive problem solving communication. These findings suggest that librarians’ social skills contribute to enhancing user comfort, trust, and the quality of service interactions. However, maintaining consistency in these skills faces challenges due to high service demand and administrative workload. This study highlights the importance of strengthening interpersonal competencies as a strategic component in user centered library services.

Abstract

This study analyzes curriculum development, learning environment empowerment, and monitoring and evaluation (M&E) strategies at SDN Tanjung Pagar 3 and SDN Kuin Utara 4 in Banjarmasin City. While previous studies have often examined curriculum implementation, leadership, or evaluation separately, limited attention has been given to the interaction of these dimensions within an integrated curriculum management system in primary schools. A qualitative multi-site approach was employed using interviews, participatory observations, and document analysis. Data were analyzed through cross-site comparison and validated through source triangulation, method triangulation, and member checking. The findings indicate that effective curriculum management requires: (1) curriculum development based on student needs, data utilization, school asset optimization, and professional learning communities; (2) learning environment empowerment through Contextual Teaching and Learning (CTL), integration of local wisdom through eco-schooling programs, and collaboration with external partners; and (3) systematic M&E practices supported by data-based planning, coaching-oriented clinical supervision, application of the CIPP evaluation model, and continuous quality control. The study contributes an empirical understanding of how curriculum planning, environmental resource utilization, and quality assurance can operate as an interconnected system to strengthen learning quality in public primary schools. In conclusion, adaptive and contextual curriculum management depends on participatory instructional leadership and collaborative stakeholder engagement to support sustainable educational improvement.

Abstract

This study investigates how community-embedded learning grounded in the local coffee ecosystem functions as an experiential space for meaning-making, identity formation, and learner agency among junior high school students in rural Jember, Indonesia. The research specifically aims to explore students’ lived experiences in coffee-based CBL activities and to understand how these experiences support curriculum learning on the utilization and conservation of natural resources. Employing a qualitative phenomenological design, the study was conducted in three rural schools in Jember Regency (SMPN 1 Sumberbaru, SMPN 6 Tanggul, and SMPN 4 Bangsalsari) and involved students, teachers, farmers, community actors, and creative-economy stakeholders as participants. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and document review, and analyzed using Moustakas’ phenomenological steps bracketing, horizontalization, thematic clustering, and essence synthesis. The findings reveal that coffee-based CBL bridges curriculum concepts with students’ lived realities by situating learning within authentic socio-economic and environmental contexts. Students reported deeper conceptual understanding, stronger sense of belonging to the agrarian community, emotional engagement, and enhanced local identity awareness. The study also shows that creativity emerged as a reflective and contextual process through students’ participation in problem-solving, idea generation, and community interaction, rather than through abstract classroom tasks. Moreover, CBL fostered learner agency, collaborative participation, and socio-cultural awareness as students actively engaged with community knowledge and practices. Overall, the study demonstrates that community-embedde

Abstract

The Meratus Mountains in South Kalimantan feature a landscape of significant ecological, social, and cultural importance for the sustainability of the Dayak Meratus Indigenous Community. This area also represents a living space managed through ecological knowledge and customary institutions that have been passed down from generation to generation. However, the area has evolved into an ecotourism destination that is popular among people looking to spend their vacations. This article aims to analyze strategies for strengthening ecotourism based on the Dayak Meratus’s local wisdom as an approach that can reconcile ecosystem conservation goals with the recognition and strengthening of indigenous peoples’ rights. The research employs a descriptive qualitative approach through a literature review and document analysis of indexed journal articles. Data were analyzed using thematic content analysis to identify relevant patterns, practices, and governance strategies. The study’s findings indicate that the local wisdom of the Dayak Meratus—reflected in the management of pamali forests, the practice of shifting cultivation (manugal), the aruh ritual, and the institutional roles of the damang and balian—not only serves cultural functions but also forms community-based conservation mechanisms. Based on these findings, efforts to strengthen ecotourism are directed through four main strategies, namely: strengthening customary institutions as co-managers of the area; accelerating the recognition of customary forests and village forests as the basis for partition zoning. Based on these findings, efforts to strengthen ecotourism are guided by four main strategies: strengthening indigenous institutions as co-managers of the area; accelerating the recognition of indigenous forests and village forests as the foundation for participatory zoning; integrating traditional ecological knowledge into tourism interpretation and conservation education; and developing mechanisms for the equitable distribution of economic benefits through community-based enterprises. This study confirms that ecotourism rooted in local wisdom and managed through collaborative governance has the potential to serve as an instrument for strengthening ecosystem conservation while simultaneously enhancing participation, economic self-reliance, and recognition of the rights of indigenous communities. Thus, this model can be developed as a more inclusive, equitable, and sustainable conservation approach in the Meratus Mountains region.

Abstract

This article aims to bullying remains a form of social conflict that persists in residential educational settings, including madrasahs based on Islamic boarding schools (pesantren). Intensive daily interactions, senior–junior relations, and diverse socio-cultural backgrounds may increase the risk of bullying if they are not systematically managed. This study aims to examine: (1) madrasah principals’ leadership planning for bullying prevention, (2) the implementation of ethnopedagogy-based conflict management, and (3) best practices that support sustainable bullying prevention in Islamic boarding school–based madrasahs in Bengkulu Province. This study employed a qualitative approach with a case study design. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and document analysis involving madrasah principals, pesantren caregivers, teachers, and students across seven Islamic boarding schools designated as pilot child-friendly pesantren. Data were analyzed using an interactive model comprising data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicate that bullying prevention is effectively embedded in leadership planning through the integration of anti-bullying policies into the vision, mission, and programs of child-friendly pesantren grounded in Islamic values and local wisdom. Ethnopedagogy-based conflict management is implemented through dialogical, deliberative (musyawarah), and restorative approaches that prioritize education, moral reflection, and relationship restoration over punitive sanctions. Sustainable bullying prevention is further strengthened by best practices such as continuous value habituation, senior–junior mentoring systems, and periodic program evaluations. Overall, the study concludes that madrasah principals’ leadership grounded in ethnopedagogical and Islamic values provides an effective and contextually relevant model for preventing bullying in residential religious education settings.

Abstract

The main objective of this article is to analyze how social studies teachers in public junior high schools in Banjarmasin perceive the implementation of the Independent Curriculum. The implementation of the Independent Curriculum is just one example of how the curriculum is constantly evolving as a learning framework. Teachers are given the opportunity to create learning methods specific to their students' needs through this curriculum. However, the effectiveness of its implementation depends heavily on the role and level of understanding of the teachers themselves. Furthermore, regarding the Independent Curriculum, teachers still have differing views on its pros and cons, including the difficulties faced by educators due to factors such as limited facilities, training, and teacher preparedness. The researchers in this study used a survey to collect quantitative data. Using a random selection technique, the researchers recruited 79 social studies teachers from public junior high schools in Banjarmasin City. This study used a validated and reliable questionnaire to collect data, which was then analyzed using basic linear regression and bootstrap tests to ensure the accuracy of the findings. This study found that social studies teachers' views have a positive and substantial impact on the implementation of the Independent Curriculum. This is supported by a regression coefficient of 1.305 and a p-value of less than 0.05. Social studies teachers' perspectives explain 69.9 percent of the variation in the implementation of the Independent Curriculum, with a coefficient of determination of 0.699. Based on these results, teachers' opinions are crucial for the effective implementation of the Independent Curriculum in schools. Therefore, for the effective implementation of the Independent Curriculum, prioritizing teacher knowledge, readiness, and support is crucial.

Abstract

Economics education at the secondary school level has a strategic role in equipping students with financial literacy, critical thinking skills, and qualified problem-solving skills. Unfortunately, specific material such as Money and Banking is often considered difficult and boring for students due to the lack of contextual delivery methods. Answering these challenges, this study developed a Problem-Based Learning (PBL)-based teaching module intended for grade X students at the Daarul Ukhuwah Islamic Boarding School Malang. Through the Research and Development (R&D) method, this research aims to compile modules, test their validity, and assess their effectiveness in improving student competence. The development process involves the stages of needs analysis, design, expert validation, and field trials using questionnaire instruments and evaluation tests. The results of the study show that this PBL module is declared very feasible and valid by experts with the "excellent" category. In addition, the application of this module has proven to be effective in improving students' problem-solving skills, which can be seen from the achievement of an average score above the 75 completeness standard. Not only from the cognitive side, this module also succeeds in triggering students' learning motivation and active involvement in group discussions and real-life case study analysis. In conclusion, the PBL module on money and banking material is an effective teaching material innovation to increase students' interest and readiness to face future economic challenges. This product is highly recommended as a reference for quality teaching materials, both in Islamic boarding schools and other secondary schools.
